Lets start by saying I purchased this DSLR to go traveling with for 8 months. I am a amateur photographer and enjoy taking pictures of just about everything so far. The 100D is still with me now and its been perfect for all my travel needs!! I only use one lens which is the Tamron 18-270mm F3.5-6.3.

Cheap; Light; Small; Easy Functions; Good image Quality; Full HD video 1080p; Touchscreen

Slow buffer; material of the body

I purchased this camera about 3 weeks ago and it is great to carry around when I am not using my Canon 60D. Light weight, small size and you can use your Canon lenses. I am p`d off because I ordered it through Henry`s on-line, paid $799.95 and now Henry`s has it on sale for $50.00 less!

The Canon EOS 100D offers a satisfying experience for new photographers or those who are looking for a very compact entry into the world of SLRs. However, it might not be small enough to lure potential buyers away from a similarly priced mirrorless ILC with more features.

Extremely compact and lightweight; Excellent touchscreen; Very good image quality

Some users might find the design a little cramped; No built-in Wi-Fi; Short battery life compared to other SLRs

Canon has always been an easy choice for entry-level digital SLR cameras, combining low prices with good feature-sets and impressive image quality in its basic EOS range. Nikon has recently taken the crown with its D3200, though - Canon's response has been to diversify and offer three entry-level...

Good ergonomics for its small size; Good image and video quality; Simple; easy to operate

No sensor improvements since 550D; Cheap construction

Although it's too early to make a firm pronouncement before we receive a review camera, we feel Canon has a real winner with the EOS 100D. Many photographers have been waiting for a capable, lightweight compact camera that can accept a wide range of lenses and accessories and merge seamlessly into...

Price: $910 with 18mm-55mm kit lens (street price) Small outside, big inside THE LOW-DOWN This 18-megapixel camera is Canon's smallest DSLR, competing with the largest mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras.

This 18 megapixel camera is Canon's smallest DSLR, competing with the largest mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras. Fitted inside the relatively petite body are the mechanicals and electronics of the larger 700D, including the hybrid auto-focus system to improve focus tracking in video mode.

Having last year launched its first mirrorless-system camera – the EOS M – Canon seems determined to shrink its DSLR range, too. It's starting with the EOS 100D, which Canon claims is the smallest DSLR on the market.

Canon was late in entering the mirrorless camera market. When it did come out with the EOS M it faced some flak due to the slow autofocus speed. Although Canon did announce a firmware update to improve the AF speed in June this year, the damage was already done.

While the SL1 looks a lot like other EOS Rebel cameras at first glance, once you hold this model you'll notice the thing that sets the SL1 apart from its Rebel brethren -- its small size.

Smaller size and lighter frame is definitely noticeable versus other DSLRs; Seems to have a sturdy feel and good build quality; SL1 remains easy to hold with well-sized right-hand grip; despite small camera body; Extremely fast performance in Viewfinder mode; Image quality is very good versus others...

Having an articulated LCD would have been a nice feature; No built-in wireless capabilities; AF illuminator sometimes struggles in extreme low light situations; Slight changes in menus between Viewfinder and Live View modes may confuse some photographers; Battery life is below average versus other...
